Wanna Steingrab (15) submitted by CharcoalBurner89 on 4th Sep 2022. After the excavation, this megalithic tomb was backfilled with earth just like Wanna #16 and 17. However, the capstones protrude a little from the ground.

Ildbjerg Langdysse submitted by Martin_L on 31st May 2010. Scan from old diapositive (sorry for quality) showing the very impressive site from the NE. The capstone of the southern chamber is clearly visible. The northern chamber is to the right of it, but less obvious as the capstone is robbed. As at similar sites the kerb-stones of the narrow sides are significantly larger. June 1992

Log Text: Very well preserved. However, this can only be achieved if the field is not currently being planted. Otherwise a really impressively well-preserved long barrow.
